Year 4 – Fairtrade Friday

Year 4 took some time to think about Fairtrade, we focused our attention on one product in particular. Chocolate is one of the worlds most favourite foods but growing cocoa is a hard task. We looked closely at all of the different people that are needed to produce chocolate, we were all assigned a role and using a ball of string we connected with one another to show the route needed to end up at the chocolate you see in the shops today. We discovered that all of the different people from the farmers to the factory workers all have to work together to get the best results and that if one area suffers it has an effect on the others.
